    Tony, I really hate to hear that. Would it be worth checking local pawn shops to see if your bow might show up? Hope you can find your stuff or more importantly the scumbags that took it.

    Edit: Btw...I have a new "Kentucky" bow rope that Justin sells here and some other things. Be glad to ship them out to you.

    So sorry to hear it! Be sure to keep an eye on ebay, pawn shops, local advertisers, etc., and maybe if they are dumb enough to steal, they will be dumb enough to get caught. Let all the bow shops etc. know. I truely hope that you get your stuff back.

    I'm sorry to hear that Tony. I don't have anything to offer you but I wish I did. I will offer to come whip the thiefs a** if they catch him though.

    Sorry theres scumbags like that. My cousin had his bow stolen this past season. It was an old Hoyt Raider, and not worth a lot, but it was his, locked in his truck, in the mountains.

    Yeah, these kind of things make my blood boil, i am sorry to hear of your losses. I am just starting bow hunting, so really don't have anything to offer because, well frankly, I just dont have anything yet, I wish I could though. Maybe things will work out and you can get out and be rewarded with a nice deer.

    Wow. Man, so sorry to hear that. Its amazing to me how much low life scum there is out there. I can't even imagine stealing someones stuff. That is a sign of the times we live in, desperate.

    PT, hang in there brother.

    Hey brother, I will send you all of my stuff. I don't need any of it. I know how bad it can suck to have a lot of stuff that you've saved up for, then for it all to be taken away by some *******. Shoot me a PM brother. Best of wishes, like everybody said, I would watch pawnshops and what not. and IF YOU really want to catch these bastards, do the same thing with your car, put some stuff in it that looks valuable, then have a friend watch from afar, then when they come, you can either take care of them yourselves or let the cops deal with them.

    Sorry to hear of your loss. As has been stated, check the local pawn shops and also another idea might be craigslist. A guy here in Indiana had a trailcam stolen this year and he went on craigslist and found it for sale. He notified the police and had his camera back in two days and the guy who stole it was arrested.

    Blessings......Pastorjim

    Had the same thing happen 2 years ago, swarovski 10x42's, leica rangefinder and you can imagine what else. Luckily my homeowners insurance covered it minus the 500$ deductible. My insurance didnt go up. The things in that backpack took me a lifetime to acquire and can never be replaced, i know what you're feeling. Let me know if you need anything.

    This Is nuts. Don't know what to tell you Tony other then the fact that I'd like to catch the bastards who did this and have some rounds with them. So sorry to hear, specially of the gifts. It's a different world these days.

    Scumbags! Make sure you get the word out to all the local archery shops in your area and watch craigslist/ebay/local classifieds. Chances are they dont know anything about archery so they'll try to resell/pawn.
